Reuse and Recycling

Apple Renew is a global program that lets you responsibly recycle your old computers, displays, phones, and other devices at an Apple Store and on our recycling site. Apple operates or participates in recycling programs in 99 percent of the countries where we sell our products.

Liam is a line of robots capable of recovering high-quality materials from 2.4 million iPhone 6 devices per year, reducing the need to mine more resources from the earth. Liam is an experiment in recycling technology, and we hope it will inspire others.

Safer Materials

Apple requires its suppliers to follow the rigorous standards set in our Regulated Substances Specification, which outlines Apple’s global restrictions on the use of certain chemical substances or materials in Apple’s products, accessories, manufacturing processes, and packaging.
